Community Activities
I'm heavily invested in the Englewood community. On a daily basis I use three (3) modes of transportation in
Englewood-the light rail at Oxford, bicycle, and automobile around town. Having these experiences positions
me as someone who knows the issue first hand. As an analytical, data driven individual, I look forward to
engaging data and helping make informed decisions like the Speed Reduction protocols initiated in 2003 on
Logan St. and on Quincy.
